After suffering a tough 65-63 double-overtime loss to Lipscomb during Friday's opening day action at the 49th Annual Cable Car Classic, the Santa Clara men's basketball team is back on the Leavey Center court at 8 p.m. Saturday to face Denver.
The Broncos (0-1) were led vs. the Bisons by junior guard Jared Brownridge who scored a game-high 27 points. Matt Hubbard added 14 points on 4-for-7 shooting from the 3-point line, but Santa Clara shot just 31 percent from the field.
Lipscomb was held to 31 percent shooting from the floor by the Broncos, but rallied from 11 points down with less than seven minutes left in the game to force overtime.
Denver (0-1) was upended by Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 71-58, in Friday's opening game of the three-day, round-robin tournament.
Lipscomb (1-0) and Wisconsin-Milwaukee (1-0) will play at 5:30 p.m. Saturday.
